I'm a little worried that GPS is so vulnerable that these satellites could cause such disruption to be honest. This is satellite based, any country could be approving this plan and the impact on GPS would still be present since orbits go everywhere.

I guess I'd rather they just... not... I don't really even think the trade-off in increased seemingly real health risk is worth making the cell network even faster.

It's going to happen though, if there's no mitigation that makes GPS more invulnerable to interference it will inevitably fail when actually needed.
